Who is in charge at Chelsea? Is it the owners as a whole? Is it Clearlake with the majority stake and all the power? Is it Todd Boehly and the backers he has in the board room? Is it the co-sporting directors, Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley? Well, from what I have heard as of […]View the full article -
It’s no secret that Chelsea’s new approach to transfers revolves around young talents that can be snapped up for cheap and then sold on for big bucks in the future. When looking at the first team squad, there are numerous examples there already, with the likes of Malo Gusto, Renato Veiga, Carney Chukwuemeka, and Marc […]View the full article

Don’t get me wrong, I understand the intentions of bringing in former professional Rugby player Willie Isa, and I’m not saying it is a bad idea. I mean, I can’t see many of the players not listening to him!! But for many of the things he is apparently bringing, would it not just be better […]View the full article

John Obi Mikel right to call out Chelsea owners again even if he’s extreme – opinion
-
I’ve seen a lot of criticism for John Obi Mikel, but I’ve also seen other fans completely backing him and appreciate the fact he is out there in the public eye with a large voice, fighting the good fight for our club. I can see why Mikel annoys people. Some of his opinions are wild, […]View the full article

The waves in the Chelsea sea have now got so big that Clearlake and the sporting directors are about to get dunked on. The fans have had enough. Their voices are getting louder. Protests are being planned. Anti-ownership songs are being sung at games. The tide has turned on them, and they’re about to get […]View the full article

Mathis Amougou’s arrival seems to be a strategic move to bolster Chelsea’s midfield and future ambitions

Enzo Maresca has caused quite the stir this week with his comments after a defeat to Brighton in the FA Cup. His team took the lead but then were really pathetic in how they tried to capitalise on it. Just as we saw in the Man City game a couple of weeks ago - and […]View the full article

No, it’s not up to me to tell you who was available and who we could have signed. I don’t get paid a stupid amount of money to find them and negotiate to sign them, the so-called ‘experts’ do. The minute someone tries to say ‘but nobody was available in January’ it honestly makes me […]View the full article

For some reason, this week has been ‘the Jadon Sancho week’ and really, it needn’t be at all. Yes, he made a comment to Marcus Rashford about being free from Manchester United, so what? I think any of us would want to be the heck away from that club right now, it’s an absolute mess […]View the full article

As England gears up for its upcoming Nations League fixtures, one player who has dominated discussions in footballing circles is Cole Palmer. The young Chelsea forward has rapidly emerged as one of the most exciting talents in both domestic and international football. His impressive performances have led many, including pundits and former players, to suggest […]View the full article

It’s so easy for the owners to turn things around and get the fan base on board a bit more, well, most of us. It’s an easy fix. Of course, there are broader issues like the operations and how players are being bought and sold for profit, and how the academy players are being sold […]View the full article

The Blues have been busy in the transfer market, but one signing that’s got people talking is Mathis Amougou. The 19-year-old midfielder from AS Saint-Étienne is a name fans might not know yet, but many believe he’s certainly one to watch. He’s got technical skill, tactical awareness, and a contract that shows Chelsea is betting […]View the full article

OK, so next Friday’s game against Brighton is MUCH more important than Saturday’s game in the FA Cup, for sure. Getting in the Champions League at the end of this season is MUCH more important than moving along in the FA Cup. However, to go out of the competition in the fourth round is very […]View the full article

Chelsea splurged like no other team as they sought to reignite success by brute force in the transfer market in the last couple of seasons. Among the star names they were able to attract ahead of teams like Liverpool was the Portuguese forward João Félix. However, since arriving at Stamford Bridge, Félix’s career has been […]View the full article

I conducted some polls across hundreds of Chelsea fans in our Blues community over at Si Phillips Talks Chelsea this week. The poll results are in people, and it’s not looking good at all for Behdad Eghbali/Clearlake, and the Sporting Directors. In the entire time of their ownership so far, after doing many polls, I […]View the full article

A bit of a double edged but connected article this one, and it also carries over from my other article on the home page today titled ‘of course you could come good, eventually…’ So please do go check that one out first in this mini-series of articles about the importance of experience and balance when […]View the full article
